Doncaster Park and Ride

Doncaster Park and Ride is a park and ride bus station located in Melbourne, Australia serving the suburb of Doncaster and situating next to the Eastern Freeway. It was opened in January 2003 by the state government partnered with the former National Bus Company.[1] Although this station is served by nine bus routes, there is only one boarding platform with some buses stopping at the same stop for both directions, causing confusion to passengers.[2]
